Measurement is possible
The battery is lower, it is better to replace or recharge it

Measurement is impossible, it is necessary to replace or recharge battery
NOTE:
The working time of battery will be effected by many factors, such as ambient
temperature, recharging time, recharging and discharging times. On the data safe side, we
suggest the users recharge the battery full or prepare several full batteries before
operation.
The battery symbol only indicates power capability for current measurement mode.
The power consumption in distance measurement mode is more than in angle mode, if
the instrument enters into distance measurement mode from angle mode, the power
maybe auto-off because of lower battery.
The symbol only indicates the supply power but not the instantaneous power change.
And if the measurement mode changes, the symbol will not show the powers decrease or
increase immediately.
It is suggested to check every battery power before field work.

2.2 Setting Up the Instrument
Mount the battery in the instrument before performing this operation because the
instrument will tilt slightly if the battery is mounted after leveling.
I. Set up the tripod first: extend the extension legs to suitable lengths and tighten the
screws on the midsections. Make sure the legs are spaced at equal intervals and the head
is approximately level. Set the tripod so that the head is positioned over the surveying
point. Make sure the tripod shoes are firmly fixed in the ground.
II. Mount the instrument on the tripod head. Supporting it with one hand, tighten the
centering screw on the bottom of the unit to make sure it is secured to the tripod.
2.3 Centering and Levelling-Up

1. Position tripod legs so that the plummet is aimed to the ground mark point. Turn the
focusing ring of the optical plummet to focus.
2. Turn three footscrews of the tribrach till the center of reticle exactly coincides with the
surveying point in any position.
3. Move the tripod legs to centre the circular level. The instrument is now roughly
leveled-up.
4. Center the bubble in the circular level

with your special brush and wipe it with your special cloth (in your carrying case)
before putting away.
If an object with a high reflective factor (metal, white surface) exists between the
instrument and the target when measuring, the accuracy of the measured results will
be affected.
An angle is also able to be measured when distance measurement.
Measurement will automatically stop after a single measurement if the EDM mode is
single (Fine S / Rapid S).
If the distance measurement mode is average Fine AVG, the measured distances are

9. Offset Measurement
Offset measurement are performed in order to find a point where a target cannot be
installed directly or to find the distance and angle to a point which cannot be sighted.
It is possible to find the distance and angle to a point you wish to measure (target point)
by installing the target at a location (offset point) a little distance from the target point and
measuring the distance and angle from the surveying point to the offset point.
The target point could be found in the following three ways.
9.1 Single-distance Offset Measurement

Finding a point by entering the horizontal distance from the target point to the offset
point.
Target point
Offset point
(Target)
Instrument station
When the offset point is positioned to the left or right of the target point, make sure the
angle formed by lines connecting the offset point to the target point and to the instrument
station is almost 90.
When the offset point is positioned in front of or behind the target point, installs the offset
point on a line linking the instrument station with the target point.

12.4 Precautions When Performing Resection
In some cases it is impossible to calculate the coordinates of occupied point if the
unknown point and three or more known points are arranged on the edge of a single circle.
It is also impossible to calculate if the included angle between the known points is too
small. It is difficult to imagine that the longer the distance between the instrument
occupied and known points, the narrower the included angle between the known points.
Be careful for the points can easily be aligned on the edge of a single circle.
An arrangement such as shown below is desirable.
unknown point
known point
It is sometimes impossible to perform a correct calculation such as shown below.
When they are on the edge of a
single circle, take one of the following methods:
(1) Move the instruction station as close

as possible to the center of the triangle.
(2) Measure one more known point which

is not on the circle.
(3) Perform a distance measurement on at

least one of the three points.

Appendix I: Atmospheric correction formula and chart
(Just for reference)
Factory setting: temperature: 20, pressure:1013hPa, 0ppm
The correction:
Kpt278.960-0.2902*p/(10.0036*t)
Where: p--Pressure value (hPa)
t--Temperature value ( )
Kpt--Atmospheric correction (ppm)
Example:
t=20, p=1013hpa, L0=1000m.
Then:
Kpt=4ppm
L=L0(1+Kpt)=1000(1+410-6)=1000.004m
The atmospheric value is obtained easily with the atmospheric correction chart.
Find the measured temperature in horizontal axis, and pressure in vertical axis
on the chart.
Read the value from the diagonal line, which is the required atmospheric
correction value.

Appendix Correction for refraction and earth
curvature
Considering the correction of refraction and earth curvature for distance
measurement, the formula for slope distance, horizontal distance and vertical
distance applied in the instrument are as followings:
The conversion formula for horizontal and vertical distance is as follows when
correction for refraction and earth curvature is not applied:
HD=SD COS
VD=SD SIN
NOTE:
The factory setting for the refraction coefficient K is 0.142.
Refer to the 3.8.1 Measure Condition Setting to change the value.

then select the instrument mode in the SurvCE Stonex Total Station Menu.
4. Set the communication parameters on the PDA, they must be same with R2
PLUS seriess. And select the 2-Way in communication setting.
5. And then the PDA will sending data to R2 PLUS series to test the
communication, if they can not communication, check the cable connection
and parameters to try again. Now you are ready to start Survey ( Survey
menu of SurvCE ) .
